In a T20 match, Chennai Super Kings needed just 6 runs to win with 1 ball left to go in the last over. The last ball was bowled and the batsman at the crease hit it high up. The ball traversed along a path in a vertical plane and the equation of the path is y=ax^(2)+bx+c with respect to a xy -coordinate system in the vertical plane and the ball traversed through the points (10,8),(20,16),(40,22), can you conclude that Chennai Super Kings won the match? Justify your answer. (All distances are measured in metres and the meeting point of the plane of the path with the farthest boundary line is (70,0).)
